It should be no problem. It works fine at least in MSXSL:<br />

<pre><code id="code-627581">&lt;xsl:variable name=&quot;nodes&quot; select=&quot;/&quot;/&gt;
&lt;xsl:for-each select=&quot;$nodes/Test/*&quot;&gt;
&lt;xsl:value-of select=&quot;name()&quot;/&gt; - &lt;xsl:value-of select=&quot;.&quot;/&gt;,
&lt;/xsl:for-each&gt;
</code></pre>
</div>

<xsl:variable name="nodes" select="/"/>
<xsl:for-each select="$nodes/Test/*">
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/> - <xsl:value-of select="."/>,
</xsl:for-each>

That's true, but when i pass this variable to a Java method, it looses its tags and only contents are passed.

Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
&nbsp;I have an xml as :<br />
<br />
&lt;Test&gt;<br />
&nbsp;&lt;TestNode1 name=&quot;node1&quot;&gt; This is test node 1&lt;/TestNode1&gt;<br />
&nbsp;&lt;TestNode2 name=&quot;node2&quot;&gt; This is test node 2&lt;/TestNode2&gt;<br />
&lt;/Test&gt;<br />
<br />
My Question :<br />
<br />
&nbsp;Is this possible to get this XML in a xsl:variable ? <br />
<br />
&nbsp;When I use &lt;xsl:variable name=&quot;nodes&quot; select=&quot;/&quot;/&gt; it gives me just the contents not the nodes.<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

How to get Full XML in a xsl:variable

Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, and social network services using a wide variety of languages and standards, including the familiar HTML, JavaScript and jQuery, ASP and ASP.NET, PHP, ColdFusion, CSS, PHP, Flex and Flash, but also the implementation of a broad list of standards including XML, WSDL, SSDL, VoiceXML and many more.

Web Languages and Standards

Extensible Markup Language (XML) refers to the encoding of documents such that they can be read by both machines and humans. XML documents use tags to show the beginning and end of a set of data. XML is used extensively on websites to show volumes of data, and is the default for a number of office productivity suites. This topic includes discussions of XML-related technologies, such as XQuery (the XML Query language), XPath (the XML Path language), XSLT (eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations), XLink (the XML Linking language) and XPointer (the XML Pointer language).
